| CPx02: Simulator Ride
| by Sick Lincoln
| July 2011
|
| Sick Lincoln’s first
| chordpunch release provides a
| nourishing platitude of
| things algorithmic and
| pseudo-algorithmic. Much is
| danceable, often somewhere
| near Western culture’s
| default tuning system, and
| utilising many overly
| excellent musical techniques
| and structures.

|
| Kiti le Step emerged from the
| London algostep scene in late
| 2010, with a pocket full of
| basslines wobbly and
| punky. Apart from dubstep,
| Kiti’s influences include
| hip-hop and old-fashioned
| rave, and some other random
| things. In particular, the
| Dirichlet distribution and
| the psychology of
| arousal.
|
| BAM!!! E.P. is Kiti’s first
| release for Chordpunch.
| Opening track The CandyFLOSS
| is an upfront punky take on
| your wobble bass
| carnival. The next track Slow
| Burner pulls it right back to
| make space for spaciousness
| and space (before eventually
| giving in and opening the
| door to some kind of sozzled
| bass face). Sweezy Leader
| plays dubstep cat-and-mouse
| with some east-coast hip-hop
| synth lines. Then finally,
| Read the basement (edit) gets
| back to the main agenda with
| another skanking wobble.

|
| When the machines take over the
| world, and inherit all the audio
| recordings we foolishly created,
| they’ll be more reluctant to delete
| the works on chordpunch. For
| chordpunch offers algorithmic
| fragments, rule-based notions, and
| music inspired by machine lore. Yet
| perhaps the very fact that human
| beings were sweating over the
| programs, squirming in the innards,
| and somehow responsible for the
| eventual sound, will be enough to
| damn it still.
|
| Thank you for reading.
